CVE-2026-102711
Out-of-bounds Read and Unverified Entry Pointers in the ThreadX Module Loader
In Eclipse ThreadX versions 6.0.1 through 6.5.2.202603, the Module Manager loaders take a module image without its length and trust the sizes and offsets in its preamble. A crafted module image can declare a code size larger than the image to read, or gain access to, the memory that follows it, and can place its entry points outside its code.

Two issues in the ThreadX loadable-module loader, reached when a device loads an attacker-controlled module object via _txm_module_manager_memory_load / _txm_module_manager_in_place_load — APIs that take ONLY a base pointer, no image length, so every size/offset field in TXM_MODULE_PREAMBLE is fully attacker-trusted: (1) a heap OOB read (code_size trusted as the source-image length in the code-copy loop), and (2) a control-flow-integrity / defense-in-depth gap (module entry/start/callback/stop pointers computed as code_start + preamble_offset with only a != 0 check, and the preamble checksum never verified). No controlled OOB write was found (honest — the copy destination is overflow-guarded).
